Okay, on my Win2K system, the version of WordPad I have there has, as one of
its Save As choices, Word for Windows 6.0.  On my Windows XP Pro system, it
doesn't have this option.  I really wanted it, so I copied the file from the
Win2K system into a different place in Program ...

I have several items in my Scheduled Task.  When I look on the window of
Schedule Task, it shows 4 of the programs as Running.  Nothing is happening,
they just keep running and the task do not get activated.
Any suggestions.

I'd like to have "Search..." in the context menu open a search program
of my choosing in place of the default sucky windows search.  Can this
be done with some registry edit or by replacing some windows file with
a hacked version?

I have a small problem is that i cannot get into my sound manager for some
reason im just wandering if any one can help
Thanks
Alex

Is there any software available with that capability to search the windows
registry for a specific word or phrase and then remove and delete all the
results automatically ?
Thanks in advance

I Have just installed a Maxtor SATA 200 GB hard drive in my computer.
Partition Magic reads this drive at slightly over 200 GB, but Windows
XP reports it as 193GB.  What gives?

I tend to use long file names, so as to identify needed files readily.
If the file saves to my C drive in Windows XP Professional,
I don't pay particular attention to the length of the file name
that I've used.

I've got XP Pro SP2.  My JPE, JPEG, JPG files are displaying the Netscape
icon next to them even though I have gone to Windows Explorer > Tools >
Folder Options and set it up so that Photoshop opens each of these file
types.  The Photoshop icon is displayed in the Folder Options ...

Is it possible to have the menu automatically drop down when the
cursor hovers over a menu item in the menu bar?

PS:  I am referring to the main items in the menu bar across the top

I run XP Pro.  All my disks are formatted NTFS.
-------------------------------
In Properties some of my disks have option to:
        "Compress drive to save disk space".

Can someone please help.  I am new to changing settings for
individual users.
(a)  I want to prevent a particular user from seeing the option to
"Turn Off The Computer" on her Start menu.

can someone direct me on modifying and/or customizing WinXP drive icons located in My Computer, thx

I am hoping there is a way to customize colors and fonts within
certain apps, games etc. For example, Solitaire in windows has small
fonts and a pretty bright green backgrounds. I have bad eyes and
bright backgrounds make it worse. Another example would be in Office

my quick launch and notification area icons have suddenly got larger, i have
XP and have not changed any settings recently, can u tell me how to correct
it or refer me to the correct newsgroup??
thanks

Not sure what I did but no longer have my 'Start' button. Any help would be
appreciated. THANKS
